Gully erosion has become a field of growing interest among the research community but
there still are numerous knowledge gaps that need to be addressed. The aim of this work is …

Gully erosion has important on and off site effects. Therefore, several studies have been
conducted over the past decades to quantify gully headcut retreat (GHR) in different …

Bank retreat plays a fundamental role in fluvial and estuarine dynamics. It affects the cross‐
sectional evolution of channels, provides a source of sediment, and modulates the diversity …

Gully headcuts are due to erosion generated by concentrated overland flow, non-uniform
infiltration, the presence of impermeable sub-surface soil layers, and a hydraulic gradient. It …

Vegetation plays an important role in gully headcut erosion in China's Loess Plateau, but
little is known about the effects of root density on gully headcut erosion. This study attempted …

Over 295,000 gullies have developed in the black soil region of Northeast China, and
approximately 80% were observed in cropland, which caused intensive land degradation …

Gully erosion is one of the most severe types of land degradation, hindering food production
and sustainable agricultural development. However, the historical evolution process and the …

How to assess gully erosion at large spatial scales is a major challenge, and few previous
regional-scale studies have identified the vegetation and topography as the main factors of …

We present observations and analysis of gully headcut erosion, which differ from previous
headcut studies in both spatial and temporal detail. Using ten terrestrial laser scanning …

Soil erosion resistance of gully head determines gully headcut process and further affects
gully erosion. However, few studies were conducted to clarify the vertical change in soil …
